caught Cummings the train robber. He
had briar- wood pipe between his teeth,
wore his hands in his pockets, and had a
beautiful swagger. They say that O'Con-
nor used to be Chief-of- Police in Chicago.
He is tough looking old customer even if
his teeth are pretty nearly all gone and if
he is little hard o. hearing. He stood
with his feet wide apart, and his hands
showed beneath his capacious pouch deep
into his breeches pockets. His blue flannel
shirt was gathered loosely around his bull
like neck; and at his throat his black tie
was gathered into a monstrous bow that
hung in limp folds over his chest. A
SLOUGH hat decorated his head; and his feet
were encased in No. IL boot of magnifi-
cent depth of sole. Both he and his
Lieutenant were much exercised over the
visit to the Pinkerton cars of a man who
pretended to be doctor with another who
is now known to be striker, on Thursday.
The pretext for the call was that the
Health authorities had learned that there
was sickness in the gang. When they had
gone the Pinkertons made a vigorous
search for dynamite, and in default of that
have since concluded that they were only
on a spying expedition. The main force

it was to these that the two suspected WIS.,

of him; and the chocolate colored artist
has his razor and brush and cup and scis-

wants them. and cleans a chin with rare

PATERS0N,s GREAT FIRE.
The Biggest Mosquito Net bill in the
Country Destroyed-Many Idle Hands.

PATERSON, N. j., Feb. s. This morning,
at $50 o'clock, destructive and threaten
ing fire broke out in the immense mosquito
netting and silk mill of Rand Fl. Adams. on
Van Houten street. Buckram is also a
product of the mill, and the fire started in
the gray room, where the cloth is stored
before it is treated with the stiffening pro-
cess. At first the fire only smouldered,
and it was thought by the few about the
mill that it could be extinguished with but
little effort, but of sudden the whole
northern end of the building burst into
flames The flames are supposed to have
originated spontaneously The building in
which the fire started is four-story brick,
about 400 feet long. This building was
Quilted, and the eastern WALL fell on the roof
of the Phoenix Mill adjoining. narrowly
causing the burying of IA number of fire.
men who were on the roof. The loss is
very heavy, as new and expensive ma
chinery had just been placed in the Har-
mony Mills. The damage is placed at
about 100000, and it is fully covered by
insurance. The morning was intensely
cold and number of the fremen had mar
row escapes. Christopher Rafferty,, of En-
CINE No. s, fell off ladder and broke his
leg. William Greer, Foreman of Cataract
Hose, was found in basement partially
suffocated 1t is believed he will die.
Others were hurt less seriously. About
900 people are thrown out of employment,
and as this is the only cotton mill in Pater-
son, they will be unable to obtain work for
some time. The Phoenix silk mill foundry
adjoining also took fire and was destroyed.
This mill was damaged by the large brick
wall falling on the roof. The Adams mills
are the largest in Paterson, and their out
put of netting is the largest in the country.

FOUR REPUBLICANS BOLT.

Because Democrat Nomimates Repub
lican Against n Caucus Nominee.
NEWARK, Feb. ESPECIAL, There was
music in the Beard of Aldermen, in which
the Republicans have majority of the
members, last night by the Generalization
of the Republican forces, four of them
boiling the caucus nomination of William
F. Otis as Assistant Street Commissioner
Otis had received the Republican
caucus nomination and it was
generally conceded would receive
majority of the votes of the Aldermen
last night. A bomb was thrown in the Re-
publican camp, however, when, after the
meeting had gotten fairly under wsy, AL
dermaE Armitage demo rat) arose in his
place and nominated William Riker, an
Eighth Ward Republican, against Otis.
"Such a nomination coming from the
Democratic side of the house" said Mr..
Armitage. may surprise the Republicans,
but have good reasons for making it. Mr.
Riker is Republican, and would make a
good Assistant Street Commissioner 1t is
for the Republicans to decide whether
they will vote to accept competent man,
or an individual who is VIGOROUSLY incom-
petent." This provoked a hot war of
words between several of the Aldermen,
including Armitage, Staiasby and Baker,
and resulted in the bolt of four Republi-
cans, Baumann, Dusenberry. Price and
Theobald. The election of an Assistant
Street Commissioners was laid over.

TWICE BROKEN.
A Railway National Bank Imperilled a
Second Time.


Second Time.
RAILWAY, Feb. 5.-Some excitement has
been occasioned here by the making of an
assessment of fifty per cent. upon the
stockholders of the National Bank of this
city. The bank became insolvent three
years ago, and the Government made fifty
per cent. assessment to keep it in business
shape. 1t was understood at the time tina !,
that assessment would answer the purpose.
B. M. Price was made President and III. W.
Brett Cashier of the Bank by new Board
of Directors at the time of the organization
Since then the Bank has been understood
to have done business earning 9 per cent
diviDends, but within the last day or two
Cashier Brett hes sent cut notices, by di-
rection of the Comptroller of the Currency,
imposing another 80 per cent. assessment
on the stockholders. It has been learned
since that much of the paper held by the
Bank and thought to be good at the time
of the first assessment, has been found to
be valueless, and the Comptroller of the
Currency practically holds the Bank to be
insolvent. A meeting of the stockholders
is to be held in few days. Some of them
favor liquidation and the reorganization of
the Bank as State institution with re-
duced capital.

A CLEHER MESSENGER.
Am Imposter Sends to Him for $25, which
He Gets and Hands over TO the Police.

NEWARK, N. j., Feb. 5.-Lawrence
O'Connor, District Messenger, has
brought himself into some prominence by
a most clever piece of detective work.
Shortly after II o'clock last night man
who told the boy he was Dennis Dunn,
told O'Connor to go to Fiegenspau's
brewery and tell the proprietor that Den
mis- Dunn was 10 trouble and wantei $25.
The boy got the money, which Fiegen-
spau enclosed 10 an envelope. OConnor,
though bit fourteen ye RS of age, suspect
ed that Dunn was an imposter and instead
of taking the money TO him, went straight
to Police Headquarters and handing the
Lieutenant the envelope, reported his sus-
picions. Teen o Conner went in search
Of tee impeslcr but could not find him.
The brewer this morning received back
his $25 from the police. Dennis Dunn is
reputable sa Don keeper. but denies that
he authorized any one to go to the brewer
for him, and said he was not in need of
money.

An GhciE EAOmUBs
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Feb. SAT fire in the
house of John Zimmerman at No. 1858
Thirty-third street last evening, two small
children were suffacated to death. Al the
time of the fire the eldest daughter, Mary,
was visiting friend and had left the two
little girls, Eva, aged about four years, and
Emma, aged six years, alone. When the
fact of the presence of the children in the
house was made known to the friends, two
of the men entered the house and found
the younger sister upon the bed with her
head covered by the pillow and the elder
in stairway leading to the attic, where she
had evidently run in her fright. Both
children were dead, though neither was
burned.

passing the house, heard the couple scream

floor, with his clothing on fire. 1t was
with great difficulty that he rescued him
from the flames and put out the fire on his
